got some seats out of a 96 stang

I cut out the metal bars on my 2002 seats and cut some of the foam so it would sit a bit lower to the floor, more like the original seats. But like Adam said, there is a gap. I plan to someday fashion a wooden filler from a 2x6 so I can staple the carpet down and firmly position the seat. I even got the snap in brackets that mount in the metal rail on the newer cars to snap the seats in place.

This thread was incredibly helpful when I did mine this spring. Thank you for that. I just cut some of the foam on the seat ( just marked where it was hitting with a sharpie) and it fits pretty good. I left the metal bars in place and they seem it hold it in place pretty good. I too will be filling in the gap with a 2x6 and some black carpeting stapled to it.

trbkrb: so your saying you got the mounting brackets from an sn95 and mounted them in your fox?

yeah, i knew about the gap, ill make something to cover that up

wow i like this, didnt know it was a direct bolt on, all i get around here is sn95 v6's with great interiors. i really didnt like my 95's seats..... but if i need replacements this would be my first goal....


anyone know if those halo escort headreaast will go into the stock GT foxes seats? i love halo headrest
and will the mid early 80's or saleens one fit in the stock gt seats....???? i think just the halo headrest add a more sportscar look to any seat

No, I haven't installed it yet, but I do have the clips. The seat bottom has two metal pins on it that snap into the corresponding retainer clips that are mounted to the metal brace that goes across the car in front of the seats.

i got my backs all in today, still have to cover the gaps and figure a better way of holding them in there, the stock sn style clips might be a good idea...ill post some pics tomorrow

Got the interior all finnished up, new seats, and most of the plastics are also new, new carpet throughout and HVAC controls re-located:








HVAC:

thats pretty much all mines doing also, i think when i close up the gaps in the front ill rig something up to hold the cussion in better...yours is looking pretty good too

yes escort halos will fit,they are the same as the mustang ones.the saleen ones and certain netted halos will not fit,the have to be sinlge post.some are dual post.
